I didn't know where else to put this, but here goes. GS has already gotten many different forms of media transfer (film, manga, audio drama, stage musical) yet no anime. Come on Capcom. Devil May Cry got one, so did Viewtiful Joe and SO many Megaman ones, so why not GS?

That would actually be pretty cool :edgey: . What sort of story arc would it follow though? Would it go off on something completely different or base it off the games' storylines? I don't know what sort of TV network would take such a show (at least according to American channels)

It would be interesting if they made their own story, but the manga plots would be sufficient (if lazy).

Mhm, depending on what they would make of it, it would either be really fun or just plain cringeworthy.

I'd personally love to see a GS anime if they put the time and effort into it to make sure it didn't stink like Jean Armstrong's body oil.

I've been thinking about this for a really long time now. :3 It's a must-see. I liked the live-action movie but, after the arrival of anime cutscenes.... >:3 :pearl:

You see that potential, huh? I have a feeling that Capcom is very capable of putting the development into a good studio. Heck, maybe they'll even bring back Bones to do it.

I completely agree, I think it shows Phoenix's ability to mature and cope with that big tragedy in his life. But speaking about Phoenix being Mia's understudy, I always wondered what happened between Phoenix's acquittal and becoming Mia's junior lawyer, Capcom has never given any sort of backstory, so it would be interesting to know about Phoenix's personal Trials and Tribulations healing and passing the bar exam.



About those little bits of backstory unknown to the fans, they could make an anime out of it. It would be pretty interesting. :edgey:

I smell a formula for a great anime! :edgey: There is another point that needs to be brought up though: how would they market it? :ron: Would they go for a broad angle to net in more people by doing a completely new canon or a narrower angle by tying up some loose ends in the main canon for their fan base? For me, the one that makes the most sense is doing a whole new canon since more people would watch the show and it would convince Capcom to do a good job if so many people were watching. The one down side, though, is that they may dumb the plot and premise down if it means a broader audience and a bigger bottom line.

I know right!? The only problem is probably the plots. The plots are always the problem. :3 But, other than that. "Capcom Anime Studios". :maya:

Yeah, that is true. But, fanmade version could come up. I dunno. Still, it is something that has been anticipated since the first trilogy. :3 :maya: Could happen. :pearl:

Hey! Maybe anime shorts would be good. I mean it's like 5-6 cut scenes put together so, they could work it out! :maya: (I'm being really optimistic today. :3) :maya:

Personally, I hope for this as well :trucy: If new visual novels such as 'Dangan-ronpa' can be adapted into an anime, I think it's just as possible that AA could be adapted :phoenix: There would be obstacles of course to any studio developing it; having approval from Capcom, level of artistic detail, developing a soundtrack and of course, adapting the HUGE amount of story in AA -even if it was only the first game- into a decent number of episodes (hopefully 24, but you never know :ron: ), however nothing too substantial. Now obviously I don't suspect one likely to be released very soon if at all, but one can hope for the best :jake:

It SHOULD be an anime. I have no :objection: s to the idea. But I hope they don't ruin it... :( I think though that if they did make it I think they should keep faithful to the game and characters. Keep in mind some cases revolve strongly around the characters and can't be avoided. So spoiler warnings should be put on the beginning of each episode. If their gonna do an anime they should add character focus they can't in the games. Development and moments where the characters are just chilling like they do in some of the official art pieces.

How would they go about giving spoiler warnings? As of yet, I have not seen a single anime (that is based on a video game or movie), provide a spoiler tag in any fashion. As far as characters to use that they cant focus on in the games go, I think it would pay off to use some of the manga stories as a jumping off point to help that process.

By the way, has anyone thought about who the best studio would be to animate this (assuming they don't go with Bones)? Personally, I'm a big fan of Production IG and would love to see them work on this

I think that the plots of the anime should be based on the plots of the actual games. Each season could be based on one of the games, with season 1 being GS1, season 2 being GS2, and so on. Like, for example, the first episode of the anime would consist of case 1-1 and 1-2 up until the first trial. The next episode would be case 1-2 up until the moment where Phoenix first has to cross examine Redd White. The next one would be the finale of 1-2, and the first bit of 1-3. The series would continue like that, with each of the longer cases being split up into several episodes, while the shorter cases are made into short snippets of an episode. It would be interesting to see certain things we only got a basic animation for in the actual game, for instance, Redd White punching Phoenix.

I would love an anime, with each game as a season, etc.

Honestly, my personal dream would be an HBO mini-series type thing, live-action, but we all know that'd never happen.

That WOULD be cool, I'm not going to lie, but I'm not sure how they could capture the zanyness in a way that did justice to the games :ron: If they ever DID do something like that and do it well it WOULD be amazing, but ce la vie; such is lfe :grossberg:

On a different note, if an anime WAS made for this series, do you think they should have 'filler' (as in plot-lines or side stories not in the games, a la the Ace Attorney manga) episodes/seasons? I think it'd be wonderful if they did it well, but maybe it'd slow down the pacing of the story? :ron:

I don't personally think that there should be "filler". Like I said, each season would be one of the games, and you'd have about 12-15 episodes in each season, with each case being split into multiple episodes, except for the short ones, which would either just be one episode, or be just a part of an episode if they're really short, like 1-1. There would be 5 seasons, one for each game in the main series at this point. When GS6 comes out, they would make a 6th season about that game. Maybe there could be filler episodes in between games being released, like between the season based on GS5 and the release of GS6, but I don't want to see filler in the middle of the series, keeping me from being able to see the adaptations of the cases.

While it would be interesting to see the games turn into full arcs or episodes of an anime, im not sure the show should be limited to that. Also, certain jokes in the AA series would get lost in the conversion from game to show considering how many jokes are based on the spelling of words, or not knowing who said "hold it" or "objection".

I'd like to see a potential TV show get a treatment similar to Detective conan (aka Case closed), in the fact that arcs that appeared in the manga (or in this case: games) are separated by stories/cases exclusive to the TV version.

I'd love to see 1-4, 1-5, and 2-4 animated though

This has always been one of those things I fear could go wrong at any point. I don't see Capcom working on the anime themselves because it'd be more work for them with a risky level of return. They already have animated scenes in the games, so it's not worth much more to produce an anime series on the side as well.

If an animation studio outside of Capcom earns permission to work on it, though, then I say, go for it... but only for a select number of episodes. This series isn't suited for entire story arcs; each case is rather independent of each other, aside from a few that happen to coincide into some sort of finale. Also, given the scarcity of official cases, the studio would be better off creating their own cases, set in media res and re-introducing characters when need be. Such a set-up wouldn't let the series go on for very long, since it'd be a hassle to come up with new stuff just to keep the active stories going.

Nonetheless, I love me some animated Ace Attorney stuff and hope to see more in the coming future. Meanwhile, since Ghost Trick is a completed one-shot story, they would have everything set for an anime adaptation... except for a large fanbase, but even that's growing.

I'm gonna go ahead and be the killjoy and say hell no. One of the most enjoyable parts of Ace Attorney is figuring out the cases yourself.

Other than the Professor Layton movie, I struggle to think of a single anime based on a game that wasn't a weak shadow of the original, if not flat-out terrible.

Maybe if it was set up similar to Case Closed then I would be up for it, but another idea is that they make the anime similar to the manga as I think that would translate better to TV then the game itself.

Hey, what about Steins;Gate!? That's one of the best modern anime ever created and it's based off of the visual novel. It proved to both a great adaption and stand alone series that could be viewed independently.

And don't you dare talk shit about the Professor Layton movie! It was true to the spirit of the games, had a touching story, great animation, and gorgeous music. Sure, the ending is pretty out there, but so is practically every single Layton game. Frankly, I've seen much weirder. :viola:

I'm just saying...

Spoiler: The Layton Movie
If Descolés big plan was just to raise the city out of the water a little to investigate things in it. Why not just go under the water to look at it? Fund an expedition and the like! We actually see he has submarines for the job! It'd be cheaper than the big convoluted thing he does instead....AND legal.

Spoiler:
Well Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy is supposed to explain everything. I haven't played it yet though, so I wouldn't know. In the context of the movie however, it's because he wants to find Ambrosia for HIMSELF and no one else. Not only that, but he needs the voice of Melina to restore the city to what it once was. An official expedition would have attracted media attention, and Descole doesn't want that. But this is just what I know from playing the five games and watching the film. Still need to get Azran.

Spoiler:
Only because his plan was foiled by Layton. Keep in mind that they're on a remote island away from civilization. He didn't intend for Layton to win, and it's only because he was defeated that the masses found out about Ambrosia. Again though, the Azran Legacy could possibly do something completely different.
